We Believe Event Management

Should Be Simple and Fast

GateMe was founded in 2011 by a small group of friends in Tallinn, Estonia.
The intrepid four, consisting of Ivar, Janar, Toomas and Rivo, knew
a couple of nightclub owners who had problems with their guest list management.
At the time they were doing it all on paper and we felt that a digital
version would make things much easier.

We extensively searched for an existing solution, but to our
surprise there was nothing out there. So we decided to invest
our own time, energy and money into creating a solution of our own. Thus,
GateMe was created.

It was immediately embraced by a number of event organizers in
Estonia who instantly recognised the benefits of having
their guest lists organised digitally.

Today, GateMe has taken flight and branched into many
countries including the UK, where half of our team is
currently based, the other half being back in Estonia.

We are proud to have some amazing investors such as
the Vestmann Grupp AS, Thorsten OÜ and Seedcamp,
in whose London offices we are currently based.

We continue to work hard to help make event management easier for our customers.
